The pain

just never

ever

ever

STOPS

four Advil

three Aleve

what does it take before it

STOPS

"there's nothing wrong with you," says the doctor

"you're perfectly fine"

wonder if he's ever felt like this

and whether he considered it fine

wonder how much convincing it will take

for him to scoop out my guts

so that all this will

STOP

So I'm out this morning, about the 2.5 mile point, walking along some 40 or so paces before my next run point; and I'm thinking it's about time for CJ to have another of those horribly painful days, and hoping that the recent regular exercise will make it all a little less excruciating.

Are you going to need a couple of days off from the training schedule?

Contrary to oft-quoted opinion, regular exercise has never done a thing for me in that department. Too bad. It'd be good motivation to be fit!

I'll see how things go. If I can climb Half Dome with cramps, I can probably run. (Granted, those were really quite mild as my cramps go.) If you do get a report that says "slacked off" tomorrow, though, you'll know why :-).

Hey, if you feel the need to assign yourself some light duty tomorrow, do so. I know the effort you put in yesterday and today. If you do decide to run tomorrow, I'll be duely impressed.
